Protecting Your Plants from Rabbits and Other Critters

Protecting your plants from Rabbits and other Critters is always a popular subject, especially mid summer. Are you tired of rabbits eating the flowers in your yard? Have chipmunks been digging in your mulch? This class will highlight those plants that are known to be rabbit and deer resistant. We will discuss how to minimize burrowing animals in your yard. We will also detail how to protect your flowers, shrubs and trees through the use of home-made and commercial plant care products. Registration required.
